Back to basics with Borland C Compiler. I keep getting the following message and it is driving me crazy as I cannot find where the semi colon should go or why it is expected

Here is my code, Thanks for any help in advance
/* Program to check if a given integer between 1 and 100 is odd or even
Date: 09/10/2015 */
#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
int input;
printf("\nPlease Enter A Number Between 1 and 100\n");
scanf("%d", &input);
printf("\nYou Entered %d\n", input);
//for loop used for error handling
for(input > 0 && input < 101)
{
if(input <= 0 && input > 100)
{
printf("Error!! Please Enter A Number Between 1 and 100");
}//end if 1
//modulo 2 to check for even divisibility
if(input % 2 == 0)
{
printf("\n %d is EVEN", input);
}//end if 2
else
{
printf("\n %d is ODD", input);
}//end else
}//end for loop
getchar();
getchar();
}//end main
This:
is invalid syntax. It should be
but then you have an infinite loop on entering anything valid. It should probably be an
if, but then, no error message is printed when the user enters an invalid number. You should then moveoutside the
if.There are a lot of other problems as well. I suggest you read a good C book.
